Last morning in Dubrovnik. Joe & Beth left yesterday evening for Bari via the overnight ferry. They'll be adding their comments to this blog from: Bari, the drive to Sorrento, Sorrento & Napoli!! We leave today for Venice; Dave & Becky fly out for home tomorrow morning.
This has been a super great trip.
But before I say "adieu", a little re-cap of this truely beautiful city. Built in 1272, although parts are very very old. 1667 a huge earthquake hit , demolishing the city. The 1991-5 war, the citizens re-built most of everything with the world's help. It is a UNESCO Site. The walls are straight out of Knights of the Round Table. The water supply built in the 1200's is still used today. Everything is moved by hand-carts. There are a few very small motorized vehicles. Ace swam under the walls in the Adriatic yesterday. It was so refreshing!! The Adriatic is warm, some people swim all year long, it is so warm.
